Deadline for 'Certified for Life' Candidates Dec 31st

IT professionals who were certified in 2010 or earlier in CompTIA A+, CompTIA Network+ or CompTIA Security+ have until the end of 2012 to enroll in the CompTIA Continuing Education program.

Those certified in 2010 or earlier are considered "certified for life," but these individuals can enroll in the CompTIA Continuing Education Program to show they are versed in the latest skills and technologies.

Can't believe they are still pursuing this BS, when are CompTIA going to 'show' they can keep their word over time ? They won't get another dime from me, I don't have to prove anything to them. Bunch of worthless shills.

" It is optional unless mandated by an employer. For example, enrollment is required for those using a CompTIA certification for compliance with the Department of Defense 8570 IA Directive."

I'd love to know how many people have opted in. Does anyone know if CompTIA exams are highly thought of in the U.S? I really enjoyed studying for Network+ and Security+ but in terms of career development, they have done absolutely nothing for me. Never seen a job advert with them listed as a desirable never mind a requirement. All they were for me was a really useful starting point for CCENT and CEH.

i was going to take the Network + exam but then i realised that there wasn't much point. Employers would rather have a CCNA or any specialised certs. From my POV (and correct me if i am wrong) its too generic to be of any real use outside of explaining the underlining network technologies.
